A federal judge in Florida tossed out Miami’s city district maps on Wednesday, ruling that the city racially gerrymandered for decades, throwing the electoral future of the city into question.
A group of civil rights groups, including the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and NAACP, sued Miami in 2022, claiming that its makeup of council districts illegally segregated residents because the city explicitly sorted districts by ethnic makeup.
Judge Michael Moore agreed in his ruling Wednesday.
I think a similar case had it’s feet drag for a few years and they ruled the maps were unconstitutional and then the defense kept it alive long enough that we have to default to last year’s maps, the rejected ones, until the next election.
Don’t stop them, they get what they want. Try to stop them, they delay and get what they want.
